why are Americans so much more self reliant and distrusting of government when compared to europeans?
I would advise Europeans to stop trying to completely understand the American soul, you will never fully get us.
>>215320234They live in a huge country really far from the political decisions centers.
>>215320234Are they? Everything is about consoooming now.>>215320399The american soul in question.
>>215320234The entire reason people settled here is because the founders hated government so much they decided it was better to genocide an entire continent then live under european rule
>>215320706That’s retarded, most people left Europe because they were poor
>>215320741>that's retarded, let me tell you about your countryShouldn't you be paying a humiliation tax to your muslim brothers and eating fish guts on toast right now?
>>215320706lmao, the founding fathers called themselves "your Majesty’s faithful subjects" and "your loyal colonists" mere months before the revolution started
>>215320779Go suck a black cock and pay reparations
>>215320789Nice quotes, that doesn't change the fact that puritans and pilgrams were persecuted against for non-conforming religious beliefs and england was enslaving people for petty crimes after the english civil war
>>215320234Paranoia. 90% of what Americans think is government overreach or oppression is just perfectly normal function of a civilised society, but it means that on the other 10% of times when they actually need to stand up for themselves they're on red alert and quick to stop itWestern Europeans are much more mentally numb to the idea that they might need to stand up to their own government as well as that of Russia, China or America
>>215320234because their government did shit to them that makes our nazi party seem like it was a multi cultural party when it comes to jews
>>215320706>the founders hated governmentYeah...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiskey_Rebellion
>>215320938this is relevant to the early to mid 1600s, but you referred to the "founders" so presumably the founding fathers in the late 1700s who had no puritan beliefs and had zero beef with "the government" until George went full retard.
>>215321007>>215321045The original founders of America immigrated in the 1600s. That is when europeans first started settling here. Do they not teach you context clues or reading between the lines in europe? America was a colony for over 150 years before the revolution
>>215321078if you were talking about the 1600s colonists, they didn't genocide jack shit. In fact some of them were damned near genocided by indians themselves.It sounds to me like you were talking about the founding fathers and then backpedaled
Americans being self reliant and distrusting of government is the biggest lie I've ever heard
>>215321150When was the the pequot war again
>>215321212>pequot war>700 casualtiesthis is genocide to you?
>>215321235>completely eradicate a people and its culture forever>this is genocide to you?
>>215321271>completely eradicate a people and its culturethere are Pequot TODAY
>>215321307No, there are people who claim to be perquot. The only survivors of that war all fled west to join the mohawk tribe
>>215321150>apologizing genociders
>>215321345ok fine. Here's a picture of my dog btw
>>215321078The puritan settlers formed strict forms of government as well. Ffs they even persecuted other denominations too.
>>215320938The Great Migration preceded the Civil War. After the Parliamentarians' victory, a third of those who had settled in the New World returned to England.
